At the Ali Forney Center’s Annual Gala, Tommy Dorfman, Liev Schreiber, and Virtual Zohran Mamdani Raised Over $3 Million for LGBTQ+ Youth

Published by Sam Flores

AFC president and executive director Alexander Roque underscored that sentiment, reminding attendees that LGBTQ+ youth make up nearly 40% of the homeless youth population in this country. And that each year, the Ali Forney Center—named for a queer homeless youth and advocate who was murdered in New York City in December 1997 at the age of 22—opens its doors to more than 2,000 young people ages 16 to 24 each year. “Tonight, over 400 young people are on our waiting list for a bed. Four hundred. That is not an abstract,” said an impassioned Roque. “That is 400 young souls who have known the heartache and heartbreak of family rejection. Four hundred young people standing at their own moment of decision, wondering if anyone will show up for them.” This year’s Ali Forney Center Seat at the Table gala raised more than $3 million, according to the AFC. “It’s a very proud moment for me,” said Schreiber, an Emmy-nominated actor known for his work on Ray Donovan. When he took the stage with his wife, …

Noah Wyle, Chappell Roan, and the Wretched Rise of Toxic Fandoms

Noah Wyle, Chappell Roan, and the Wretched Rise of Toxic Fandoms

Published by Sam Flores

On the second season finale of The Pitt, Dr. Robby (Noah Wyle) painfully articulates the darkness that has been weighing on him for 15 episodes—driving him, at points, to suicidal ideation. “The most important things I’ve ever done in my life have been in this hospital. Nothing will ever matter more than what I’ve done in this hospital. But it is killing me,” he says in confidence to Dr. Abbot (Shawn Hatosy). “You know how they say a part of you dies when you lose someone you love? I’m not convinced that a part of you doesn’t die every time you see a fellow human pass, and I’ve seen so many people die that I feel like it’s leeching something from my soul.” The speech—a mix of raw emotion and restraint superbly delivered by Wyle—effectively explains why Dr. Robby has been a bit off his game the whole season. But there’s a good chance his explanation will fall on deaf ears. A surprising number of people who used to love HBO Max’s Emmy-winning series now …

Chappell Roan Says Miley Cyrus, Hannah Montana ‘Walked So I Could Run’

Published by Daniella Wilson

Hannah Montana is turning 20, and Miley Cyrus is celebrating with an hour-long special — with the help of some of her fellow pop stars. The Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special sees Cyrus return to the set of the Disney Channel show that launched her career, reflecting on her wigs, her closet and her early days in Hollywood alongside her mom Tish and dad Billy Ray. Selena Gomez, who played Hannah Montana’s enemy Mikayla in the series, also stopped by in the special to reminisce. “When I watch it back, I’m like ‘we were vicious,’” Cyrus said, with the two characters throwing insults at each other constantly. “It’s pretty mean! I don’t think they’d get away with saying half of that now,” Gomez said. “I was so mean, I’m sorry!” Cyrus teased back that “we can make amends now.” Adding to the star power, Chappell Roan, who grew up watching Hanna Montana, makes a surprise appearance as well, telling Cyrus that “you literally walked so I could run.” Chappell pointed to her own moments confronting …

An alleged incident involving a tween girl and Chappell Roan on the eve of Lollapalooza Brazil music festival has turned into a media case. On Saturday, Jorginho Frello, a midfielder with the Flamengo soccer team, told his 4.9 million Instagram followers about a distressing situation involving the pop star and daughter Ada Law, whom he shares with wife Catherine Harding and Ada’s biological father, Jude Law. The internet’s reaction was instantaneous. Jorginho posted his account to his Instagram stories in Portuguese and English, writing “I went through a very upsetting situation with my family earlier today. My wife is in São Paulo for Lollapalooza Brasil. This morning, my daughter woke up incredibly excited. She even made a sign because she was so happy to see an artist she really admires, or used to admire.” “By coincidence, they’re staying at the same hotel as this artist. During breakfast, the artist walked past their table. My daughter, like any child, recognised her, got excited, and just wanted to make sure it was really her,” he continued. “And …

Jude Law‘s blended family is made up of some big names – including a well-known professional athlete. The Black Rabbit actor, 53, has welcomed seven children from across his various relationships, and among the youngest of his brood is an 11-year-old daughter who not only has a famous dad but has a former Arsenal football player as her stepfather. Jude has a daughter named Ada with his ex, singer-songwriter Catherine Harding, with whom he was in a relationship for approximately seven months. The couple had already called it quits by the time they welcomed, Ada, their only child together, in March 2015. A decade later, Cat tied the knot with professional footballer, Jorginho, who recently drew attention to an ‘upsetting’ celebrity encounter his stepdaughter had during a family trip to Brazil. On 21 March, Jorgingo claimed his family had a “very upsetting situation” while in São Paulo for the annual Lollapalooza music festival, where his stepdaughter was excited to see pop star Chappell Roan perform.

Chappell Roan Reacts to Jorginho Frello Slamming Daughter’s Mistreatment

Published by Daniella Wilson

Chappell Roan is telling her side of the story after Brazilian soccer player Jorginho Frello slammed the pop star and her team’s “extremely aggressive” treatment of his daughter at a São Paulo hotel on Saturday. The athlete alleged on his Instagram Story that one of the Grammy winner’s security guards confronted his wife and daughter at the hotel they were both staying at after his child “simply walked past the singer’s table, looked to confirm it was her, smiled, and went back to sit with her mum.” Frello did not share the name of the child, though his wife, Catherine Harding, shares an 11-year-old daughter with Jude Law. Roan, who is headlining Lollapalooza Brazil in São Paulo, took to her Instagram Story Sunday morning to address the situation, clarifying that her “personal security” was not involved. “I’m just going to tell my half of the story of what happened today with a mother and child who were involved with a security guard who is not my personal security,” the “Pink Pony Club” artist detailed in a video. …

Brazilian soccer player Jorginho Frello is slamming Chappell Roan‘s team for their alleged mistreatment of his daughter at a São Paulo hotel. Frello shared a lengthy post to his Instagram Stories on Saturday about the situation, where he said that he “went through a very upsetting situation with my family earlier.” He wrote that his wife and 11-year-old daughter were attending Lollapalooza Brazil, and his child “made a sign because she was so happy to see an artist she really admires, or used to admire.” (The soccer star tagged Roan in the post, and also shared a photo of his daughter’s sign.) “By coincidence, they’re staying at the same hotel as this artist.

Chappell Roan Leaves Agency Over CEO’s Emails With Ghislaine Maxwell

Published by Sam Flores

Chappell Roan has announced that she is parting ways with her long-term talent agencies after emails between its CEO and convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell were unearthed. Towards the end of last month, Wasserman Media Group founder Casey Wasserman – who is also the chairman of the organising committee for the upcoming Olympics – issued an apology after flirtatious emails between himself and Maxwell from 2003 were made public. In the early hours of Monday morning, the Grammy winner shared a brief statement on Instagram explaining that she no longer felt comfortable being represented by Wasserman. The Pink Pony Club singer told her Instagram followers: “As of today, I am no longer represented by Wasserman, the talent agency led by Casey Wasserman. “I hold my teams to the highest standards and have a duty to protect them as well. No artist, agent or employee should ever be expected to defend or overlook actions that conflict so deeply with our own moral values.” Chappell continued: “I have deep respect and appreciation for the agents and staff …

Makeup Artist Confirms Chappell Roan’s Grammys Look Used Prosthetic Nipples

Makeup Artist Confirms Chappell Roan’s Grammys Look Used Prosthetic Nipples

Published by Sam Flores

The Pink Pony Club singer’s daring outfit was inspired by a look previously showcased at a Mugler fashion show in 1998, which made use of a model’s real piercings. After Chappell’s appearance at the Grammys, many were left questioning whether the singer had used her own nipples painted to look whiter as part of the illusion, or opted for prosthetics. However, makeup and prosthetics artist Sasha Glasser has now cleared everything up. In a post on her official Instagram, Glasser – who has collaborated with the Grammy winner numerous times in the past, perhaps most notably on the pig’s nose showcased on her Good Luck, Babe! single artwork – confirmed that she used prosthetic nipples from Out Of Kit to create the illusion. She also revealed that she worked on the many temporary tattoos that Chappell showcased as part of her Grammys look. Meanwhile, a social media post from Popsugar claimed to have the “inside scoop” from Glasser, who apparently told them that Chappell deliberately wanted to make use of these specific “no nips” prosthetics …
